How to get rid of dampness in dog days? The weather is hot and the temperature soars. Do you often feel loss of appetite, indigestion and drowsiness? This is a sign of heavy humidity, and you need to get rid of it at this time.
"All diseases are caused by dampness" is a viewpoint put forward by Mr. Lu, a master of traditional Chinese medicine. Mr. Lu has been studying dampness since 1970s, and has formed a complete theory of syndrome differentiation and treatment of dampness for many years. He believes that with the change of natural climate and living conditions, there are more and more wet diseases, because wet pathogens are widespread. For example, the humidity of rain and fog dew in nature is called "wet in the sky", the wetland where people live is called "wet in the ground", and the "wet in people" caused by diet. The weather is wet, the ground is wet, and the human body is wet. Generally speaking, if there is internal wetness, it is easy to attract external wetness, and external wetness for a long time will lead to internal wetness. Moisture is the most likely to damage the spleen, so there are many people with weak spleen and stomach in places with heavy moisture.
Therefore, we should pay attention to the maintenance of the spleen and stomach in dog days. People with spleen and stomach deficiency and cold should drink less cold drinks and eat less cold dishes, and pay attention to the navel not to catch cold. Dog days are the season when digestive tract diseases occur frequently.
In diet, we should change the bad habits of improper diet, unclean diet and partial eclipse. Cold drinks and food should not be too much, everything should be moderate.
In addition to the above points, drinking goat milk every day in dog days is also good for dehumidification and spleen and stomach. "Compendium of Materia Medica" mentioned: goat's milk, warm in nature, sweet in taste, tonifies deficiency and cold.
Moisten the heart and lungs and cure thirst. Treat fatigue, benefit essence and qi, nourish lung and kidney qi, nourish spleen and stomach, and benefit large intestine and small intestine qi. Drink goat's milk in dog days, warm up health, eliminate dampness, nourish stomach and protect spleen. When the weather is hot and the appetite is poor, drinking a cup of goat's milk can provide a good nutritional guarantee for the human body.
Cold cultivation can make cold pathogens invade the body.
It's so hot in summer, why refuse cold drinks? "The stomach prefers warm to cold" and "the kidney prefers warm to cold". Cold food is harmful to the stomach. The qi and blood of human body and the nutrition of grains are absorbed and transported by the spleen and stomach; It is very important to protect the spleen and stomach and kidneys, because metabolic toxins are eliminated by kidneys. Eating cold food and cold drinks in summer can not only relieve summer heat, but also damage the spleen and stomach and gastric mucosa, and induce myocardial infarction, dysmenorrhea and irregular menstruation.
It should be very hot in summer.
In summer, because of a lot of sweating, my pores are all open, and I am blowing fans or air conditioners. I also eat a few iced watermelons and a cold salad every now and then. It seems that I feel comfortable and enjoy it, but in fact, my body is suffering. These behaviors are turning you into a cold constitution bit by bit, and I am getting closer and closer to cancer and farther and farther away from health. There is an old saying that "summer is not hot, winter is not cold, and you will get sick sooner or later." That's the truth. Therefore, the human body must conform to nature, it must be hot when it is hot, and it must be sweaty when it is sweaty. If it is not "hot" in summer, it is bound to get sick. If you are blindly "greedy for cold", it may lead to cold entering the body and accumulating new diseases. Eating "hot" in summer helps to keep the balance between cold and heat in the body. Especially in dog days, it is a good time to treat winter diseases in summer. Eating "hot" in summer can maximize the effect of treating winter diseases in summer, but blindly "greedy for cold" will hurt its roots.
